NASDAQ 100 Emini futures
The Weekly NASDAQ chart
- The week is a bull trend bar with a small tail above and below.
- This week reversed the bear bar of the prior week.
- Last week’s report had mentioned that bears need a follow-through bear bar.
- Bulls needed the opposite – They need this week to be a bull bar or a doji bar and keep the body gap open. Bulls got a good bull bar.
- Since this week went above the high of last week, it triggered the H1 buy signal bar of last week.
- But last week was a big bear trend bar and hence a bad buy signal bar. The week closed below last week’s high as one would expect.
- Bulls need a good follow-through bar next week closing above this week’s high, but this is less likely for the reason mentioned above.
- The last monthly report mentioned that it is unlikely for January to be a bull bar with a low above last month’s low – creating a bull micro-channel.
- So, it’s likely that January is a bear bar, or an inside bull bar or a bar with a low lower than December low.
The Daily NASDAQ chart
- Friday is a doji bar closing around the mid-point of the bar.
- Monday was a big bull trend bar closing above the daily exponential moving average (EMA).
- Tuesday was a smaller follow-through bar with a tail below. Wednesday was another good non-climactic bull bar.
- At this point there was a bull micro-channel with the low of last Friday.
- Sellers came in on Thursday when the market went above the high of last week.
- Thursday was an outside doji bar, and Friday was an inside doji bar.
- It is still likely that there will be a leg down corresponding to the leg down the first week of January.
